Installing the combined Content Deployer
If you install the Content Deployer feature on a single machine, you can install it as a single microservice called the combined Content Deployer. If you want to (be able to) scale out the feature, install the Content Deployer endpoint and Content Deployer worker separately instead.
- Copying resources for the combined Content Deployer
Copy microservice resources to your target machine. - Configuring Content Data Store access for your Content Delivery Role
Roles use the Storage Layer to access the Content Data Store, where all content is stored. To configure content storage in one or more databases, addStorageelements to the Storage Layer configuration file. In this file, you can specify configuration strings as hardcoded values or as parameters. - Configuring the combined Content Deployer
In the Content Deployer configuration file, configure where incoming packages should be retrieved from, and a number of queuing and sizing parameters. Also configure the State Store database, if necessary. In this file, you can specify configuration strings as hardcoded values or as parameters. - Installing the combined Content Deployer as a standalone microservice
Run the appropriate microservice installation PowerShell or Unix script to install and run the standalone microservice. - Securing the microservice with SSL
You may wish to secure your microservice using Secure Socket Layer (SSL), so that an HTTPS connection is required to interact with the service. - Connecting to an HTTPS-secured Discovery Service
If you secured your Discovery Service with HTTPS, you imported your certificate into a keystore which you passed to the Discovery Service. To connect to the Discovery Service, import the same certificate into your local Java keystore. - Registering the Content Deployer endpoint as a Capability
If you already used theauto-registerswitch to register this Server Role as a Capability when you installed it as a standalone microservice, you can skip this task. If you did not, you can make this microservice discoverable through the Discovery Endpoint by hand by adding it as a Capability to the Discovery Service's Storage Layer configuration file and update the Capability registry by rerunning the Discovery Service registration tool. - Adding Pipelines to your Content Deployer
To complete the installation, update your Content Deployer configuration by loading a product Add-on to match the features you intend to use.
